Batman's Challenge

Arkham Asylum has turned devilish, With Joker inside, Batman has to hide, Riots led by Dr. Charles Cavendish; Adams, a hostage, Two-Face - mind wastage, Mr. Freeze and Mad Hatter's capacity, Killer Croc and Scarecrow's dark audacity Challenged Batman in there; Amadeus Arkham killed his own mother, Haunted by a bat, He turned a mad brat, His shock therapy destroyed another; Cavendish berserk, Copied Arkham's work, Mirror glowed and the moon hid behind clouds stark, Adams kills Cavendish, Batman freed, such spark! The evil asylum crouched in shadows dark Challenged Batman in there.
